   I wanted to share my big Christmas project for this year. It is by far the largest I've ever attempted and I must say I'm proud of how it turned out. We will enjoy it for many years.



ETA: I'm sorry the photo is GIANT! I don't know why that happened.

A funny aside to this project: I was so busy working on it that I noticed only yesterday that our "regular" nativity didn't get unpacked and put out! Sent dh to the garage today to remedy that

It is a big project - and a magnificent one, too. The combo of cutouts and live figures is so cute! Your kids will really remember this.

It's exactly what our Christmas cards are, though a closer shot. Now if I could just get them sent.....
